  After School Meals
 
General Information
A written application is required annually, and must be submitted to SchoolFood in order to obtain snacks or supper for children enrolled in school sponsored programs.
The cost of the snack or supper may be partially or completely reimbursable for students who are eligible and have copies of their School Breakfast and Lunch Application on file. No part of the food cost may be billed to the child, guardian or parent. This is a non -pricing program. The balance of any cost, not covered by reimbursement, will be charged to the district, school or sponsor.

Snacks may be requested for students up to the age of eighteen . In schools where 50 % or more of the total population is eligible for free, and or reduced meals, students enrolled in After School Hours Programs may receive a free snack regardless of their individual eligibility status. Snacks are recorded on the weekly MIE-1 Form.

The snack consists of two components daily. Each participant must take two items in order for SchoolFood to claim reimbursement for the snack. The monthly menu provides considerable variety.

Suppers may be requested for students up to the age of eighteen . The meal consists of five components, similar to lunch. Each participant must take all five components for the meal to be reimbursable. Suppers are reported on the monthly MIE-4 Form provided by SchoolFood. Students who are eligible for free meals are able to receive a free supper.
